Lyrics

JANE DOE
Words and music by Michael Wayne Avery

In an empty room is an empty bed
Where I used to lay my head

(Reaching out from the dark) I have a life you'll never know
(Trying to feed a little spark) The best laid plans laid so low
(Reality's a question mark) You don't know me
(And it's tearing me apart) You can't find me

I'm no Jane Doe (know, know Jane Doe)
I'm no Jane Doe (know, know Jane Doe)

An entry in a diary lying on the floor
Shadows fall on the mail by the door

(Reaching out from the dark) I have a life you'll never know
(Trying to feed a little spark) The best laid plans laid so low
(Reality's a question mark) You don't know me
(And it's tearing me apart) You can't find me

I'm no Jane Doe (know, know Jane Doe)
I'm no Jane Doe (know, know Jane Doe)

I'm somebody's daughter
I'm someone's sister
I'm somebody's lover
And somebody's friend

(Reaching out from the dark) I have a life you'll never know
(Trying to feed a little spark) The best laid plans laid so low
(Reality's a question mark) Sister, brother
(And it's tearing me apart) Father, mother

I'm no Jane Doe (know, know Jane Doe)
I'm no Jane Doe (know, know Jane Doe)
